~~~~~Complicated~~~~~

  After unpacking most of the boxes I decided that I was going to sit in the sun and possibly tan my poor white skin. I  changed into my neon pink bikini and yelled I would be back in 30 minutes to my mother who was currently in the shower, the same place she's been the past 30 minutes. I threw on my shorts and a random shirt that said 'blink if you like me' that went to my belly button. I grabbed a towel and my phone then headed out the door.

I put my ear-buds in and continued walking the few blocks to the sand. Once I reached the sand I gracefully slid my phone into my bag, laid down my towel, removed my shirt and shorts, then flopped down on my towel.

After a few minutes of cooking in the hot sun I got bored and decided to get into the cool blue ocean water. I felt the  water hit my toes, instantly sending  cold-chills down my spine. I inched forward until the now muddy looking water was to my shins. Then started jumping over the waves like a little kid. People were probably laughing at me but I really couldn't care less. I wasn't going to turn around just to be criticized. They could kiss my butt.

I walked until the waves were almost drowning me then turned around so my back was facing the waves. I like it this way because it makes it a surprise since. I saw a few boys wink at me, and I ignored them acting as though I saw nothing. I can't even stand being near any boys without freaking out.

The waves continuously took me by surprise almost knocking me off of my feet a few times. Just like life. You never really know whats going to happen, you might just get hit by a small wave, or knocked off your feet by a big one.

I snapped out of my thoughts once I realized I was surrounded by water and couldn't breathe. I didn't know what way was up or down. I couldn't form a coherent thought of what to do. My heart rate increased, then I felt something touch me and pull me out of the salty water.

I opened my eyes and became very confused. I am out of the water so why am I struggling to breathe? Is there like water in my lungs? Then I realized that I  was having a panic attack.I was confused for a while as to what triggered it until I noticed that there was a brown-haired boy holding me. He is what started this... As if almost drowning wasn't bad enough.

 He looked down at me and smiled. He better not look too far down or else me and him are going to have a problem. I pointed to a red inhaler by my shirt. He gave me a weird look. Eventually he got a clue after 30 years and once tears formed in my eyes from shortness of breath... Idiot. He handed me over to another boy with blonde hair, and ran towards my clothes. That stalker was watching me. He knew where my stuff was and everything.

The brown haired boy came back with my inhaler and handed it to me. It's cool, I guess, not like I am slowly dying over here or anything, I can totally do this all by myself. I lightly chuckled at myself. I took off the cap and took two big breaths. I then opened my eyes again to see the two boys still staring at me. Yes you idiot I'm still alive...SURPRISE!! I said in my head.

I got up without their help, and walked over to get my stuff to leave. Unfortunately, the boys followed me. "why did u need that inhaler? Did you have a asthma attack?" the blonde asked "nope, I was giving birth to a turtle" I said with a straight face full of sarcasm " and actually it was a panic attack" . He smiled while his friend gave a slight smirk. "why a panic attack?" Said the blonde. "its...complicated" I replied. These boys are getting annoying. They need to go away, because I really don't want to have another panic attack when one of them gets to close. They continued to question me but I finally told them to leave me alone, in a less polite way. Then I gathered my stuff and walked down a few blocks to the tan beach-house that I now called home.
